Has anyone else heard this yet

A possible senario being played out in the Democratic party;

a) Hilary does not and can not mathimaticly get the needed deligates to win nomination

b) Obama does and can get the needed deligates but, has picked up way to much baggage in the last week and they're affraid it wont be over come

The DNC is kicking around the idea that neither at this point can beat McCain, so, They're kicking around the idea of excercising their powers at the DNC and nominating Al Gore for the Gen. election

I swear to you, I heard this an hour ago as a possible senario, the Dem party is at a loss right now with hilary not getting the popular vote and Obama in a popularity free fall.

This is really going to get interesting

Interesting, yes. But Al Gore can't win it, either. His arc has pretty much peaked. The Democrats have, thankfully, self destructed early.

IF they had gotten a good strong candidate, they could have run Obama as VP and that would have worked all around.

But they let Clinton dictate to them that SHE was going to be the candidate.
She's trailing smoke from both engines, and the Republicans haven't even had to lock and load yet. Her own Democratic competition, and the liberal media, have done her in. There are still a lot of skeletons in that closet before election day. And everybody knows it. You can bet the Republicans have a real good idea what went on during the Clinton ascendency, from Arkansas on. They may not even have to use it.

And what will shake out is that McCain is solid, pretty much a known quantity, a leader, a survivor, and let's face it, we could do ( and have done) a lot worse. There are going to be a lot of crossovers among the more sensible Democrats. Some of them are very intelligent, actually. I am sure they wished with all their hearts that Hillary or Obama would work out to be the answer, but they aren't, and it's obvious.

Americans are not that stupid. The liberal media like to run their own pep rally, and would have us believe that Americans would choose ANY Democrat after George Bush. The country will realize that the Bush years are over. It's not a question of having to vote Democratic ticket to choose someone OVER George Bush. The question is who to choose AFTER George Bush. That's all the Republicans need to stress.

I heard that today also on the Sean Hannity radio show. They said under that scenario Obama would be offered the VP slot and Miss Piggy some other position. Whoever reported it said there were some very very preliminary discussions on that scenario. what a mess they got themselves into. Man am I glad I'm not a Dem.

Who would vote for Obama as VP, knowing that some racial radical out there might just want to knock off the Pres to put Obama in charge? Who would want him a "heartbeat away from the Presidency"? Gore would have to sleep in a bulletproof bag.
